Interesting readings

Asif Ezdi writes in The News about how Indian culture is undermining Pakistan's `distinct way of life, values and language, which we have successfully preserved through the centuries in an alien and hostile environment'. The loony right in India thinks similarly about Valentine's day. It's interesting to see that Ezdi retired from the Foreign Service.

I find it funny that hacks like Guha don't see anything authoritarian in the present Congress govt, but surely do in the case of Modi. While Guha has taken pains to clutch at the few straws available (and justifiably so), even so, he is unable to construct even a straw hut of criticism. Pity that in the end, he is unable to show why India should see off Modi, especially given the options. His opinions are superficial, and he does not delve deeper into idealogical differences on how a country should be run, which would clarify whether or not there is authoritarian threat. Alas, one can't expect this from pseudo-liberal people that dominate the discourse these days.
